Ship Ahoy!

Just about to get ready for this afternoon's matinee of Pirates. Our biggest audience to date, with loads of under 10s, I'm sure - should be huge fun with lots of merriment!

Tickets here on Box office tab or buy in the village from Carillon Cottage in the High Street. Come and have a real giggle and brighten up your February!

Ahoy there!

Lack of posts in the last couple of weeks have not only been due to me being away for Christmas, but significant increase in Pirate activity in Wadhurst waters.
All crew are busy finalising lines (!!), searching out props, trying on costumes.....The set is done, the treasure chests are ready - and the tickets are on sale either from Carillon Cottage in Wadhurst High Street or here You have 8 performances to choose from, 6 evenings and 2 matinees - see you there! Jolly Roger!

What a great evening!

We had a lot of fun at last Friday's Christmas Party - good food, plenty of laughs with Merlin's silly games, an intellectual challenge (ahem) with Heather & Adam's quiz and generally a good catch up with everyone.

WDC party night on Friday 2nd December. Join us for an evening of jollification - a festive celebration and the christening of our new Orchard Room. You'll find the new room just behind/ under the Commem., just follow the signs. It starts at 7.30 when we briefly have a membership proposal to consider with our mulled wine, then it's on with the fun. Everyone (+ friend/ family) is welcome. Just bring along a plate of food, sweet or savoury and we'll provide the rest. You'll also be particularly welcome if you turn up with a joke or two, a funny story, a song, a game or any form of entertainment!!

AGM = Annual get-together - next Wed

It may not sound thrilling but I'm looking forward very much to the AGM as a great opportunity to catch up with everyone over a glass of wine and some nibbles. We'll be celebrating the successes of the last 12 months, but, more importantly, looking forward to the plans for the next 12 months. Constructive advice and inspiration very welcome - and much appreciated! Hope to see you at the Commem at 7.45 on Wed 21 Sept.

Coffee time!

Join us for a cup of coffee and a catch up this Saturday 3rd September at Carillon Cottage in Wadhurst High St (next to the Post Office). We'll be there from 10.30-12 noon and look forward to seeing you. Everyone welcome, members or not!

August and beyond..

The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie is progressing nicely. Panto is also pretty much cast so all goes well with Wadhurst Drama. Not much happening now in August, but in September things will hot up - with Panto rehearsals setting sail (well, it is Pirates!), coffee morning (on 3rd Sept), committee meeting, ticket sales starting for Miss Brodie and AGM mid month. More of all this anon......
